Thats cool. My daughter actually has a Jr dragster, runs 8.50's at 75 mph. I have a pro street 72 big block Nova, and a built 93 LT1 Trans Am. If I was smart enough to download pics, I would, lol!

hey yfzracer, i see alot of those pictures are from route66, and a couple maybe at 41?? cant tell i havent been there in a long time, let me know next time you go to 66, me and a couple other yfzcentral members are only 15 minutes away, local mx track is only 15 minutes farther, so next time, bring the yfz!! nice dragster btw, my dad gave me a choice between a dragster or a quad, kinda glad i got the quad but it still woulda been cool to have the dragster.

Yeah I live about 25 minutes from Eddyville. One of my good friends used to race juniors and that's how I met the Bacon's and Massey's. If you know Carter Vos, his older brother Calvin is who I always went with. They raced the Fast Rat. Yeah Bacon's are super kewl people and have an awesome rig.

Terse, the motor is a Blossom Rhino. Blossom is the brand Rhino is the name of the block. http://www.blossomracingengines.com/partsl...mbled%20Engines Mine is 3" bore X 3 1/2" stroke, which I believe equals about 27 Cubic inches. I believe power output is about 50HP for this motor, but im not sure. I know the outlaw motors are higher HP. The carb is a 42MM and some 3 3/4" motors go up to a 45mm.

Here's some more links if your interested for more motors carbs etc. http://huddlestonperformance.com/2009%206.90%20Extreme.htm http://www.jrracecar.com/pages.asp?pid=5 have fun

Shift714, pic 2,3,4,5 were taken at 66. Raced there a few times, awesome track. We race at the Grove, 66, Byron, Cordova, have been to southern IL and to Eddyville, Iowa. I'm from McHenry BTW, how about you? and I would, but im currently parting mine out. But by the summer, I should have a new ride and I want to hit that track.

Dudehaan, hell yea there rig is awesome! they seemed like real cool people.

Thanks for all the comments guys! Our season starts April, so ill be sure to get more pics and videos!!

Upload the video on youtube and then use the embed code on here just like you do with the pictures. I think you can upload videos on photobucket too...

I tried photobucket but it would not accept the file since it was over the size limit. I will try youtube when I get home from work. Thanks.

Here is the incar video. This is the first time I used the camera. I had to install it after the body was lowered so it made it a little difficult. This is the first run of the day in Tuscon, AZ. The first part is the burnout and the the full 1/4 mile pass.
